The Best Game You (Probably) Won't Play

Skin Deep by Blendo Games is one of the best games I've played in years. It's genuinely the closest I think a game has come to capturing Hitman World of Assassination's chaotic magic, and that's already one of my favourite games of all time. Truly a marvel.

Thanks to the current state of the games industry, however, and the resulting challenges stacked against indie games like Skin Deep - from development and production through to release and coverage - as well as the continued dominance of AAA megahits like Grand Theft Auto and the upcoming release of the Switch 2 (with all the associated talk of the cost of games rising to $80), I'm willing to bet you probably won't play it. In this combined game review and industry analysis, let's talk about why you absolutely should check out Skin Deep - the best game you probably won't play.

An alternate title for this video might be The REAL Problem With Modern Gaming.
